"...It's already this late, Mr. Lin Wei, please stop joking like this!"

Jie Er felt that this was Lin Wei's teasing, so he threw the helmet in his hand to the ground, pointed at Lin Wei's face covered by the helmet, and scolded him with grief and anger.

"Traffic rules? Ha! I know I failed to protect my city, and she's dead! Now, are you going to use this method to mock a pathetic, useless person like me?!"

"Captain Jie'er, you misunderstood."

Lin Wei did not interrupt her scolding. Instead, after she finished speaking, he gently took off his helmet and placed it on the ground just as gently. Then he put his arm around Jier's stiff shoulders and asked her to turn around, with her back to him, and look in another direction.

"See? So many people are still alive today because of you and your team's desperate battles. They are all residents of this city."

Lin Wei pointed to Jie'er one by one, his tone gentle but firm; then he raised his arm and pointed to the farther back.

"Look over there. Although it was also severely damaged by the previous earthquake, the efforts of you and your team have stopped the vast majority of Honkai beasts here. Very few Honkai beasts can bypass this defense line and reach that area. There must be more people who survived there, and they are also residents of this city."

Then, Lin Wei put his arm around her slightly relaxed shoulders and changed her direction again, letting her face the sea, which was also the battlefield where she had fought.

Lin Wei gently pointed at the Valkyries active in the distance and said seriously to the confused Jie Er,

"Look, you and your team protected them, and you're still fighting, aren't you?"

Lin Wei released the hand that was around Jie'er's shoulders, took two steps away, picked up the helmet that Jie'er had thrown on the ground, gently wiped off the dust, and then solemnly handed it to her again.

"Look, the inhabitants of this city are still alive, and the warriors who protect this city and its inhabitants are still fighting. How can you say that it is dead?"

Jie Er felt sore in her heart after hearing what Lin Wei said, and she couldn't help but burst into tears. But the voice beside her was still gentle and firm.

"This is clearly the result of your desperate efforts! The city of Manila is still alive. It still has a glimmer of hope. It's right here, under your protection. Can't you see that?"

"...So what are you doing?"

Jier took the helmet again with a confused look on her face. She still didn't understand what Lin Wei meant by this.

At least now she knew that this was definitely not a mockery of herself.

"Since this is still a living city, isn't it only natural to obey traffic laws when traveling?"

Lin Wei put on his helmet again, lifted the visor, and said with a smile,

"Especially as a hero protecting the city, shouldn't you serve as a role model?"

"..."

"........."

"…………"

Jier lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, but her chest rose and fell more violently, showing the excitement in her heart at the moment.

He's right, I haven't lost yet!

Jier put the helmet on his head in a quick and elegant move. For a moment, he seemed to have become the elegant knight he once was. He also lifted the veil and turned to Lin Wei and said,

"Let's go!"

Her eyes were firm, and her tone was no longer fragile or hesitant. After she finished speaking, she lowered her shawl and gently turned the handlebars with her hands. The engine of the vehicle emitted one surging wave of air after another as she moved.

"Haha, it would be disrespectful to refuse."

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Lin Wei smiled lightly, lowered the shawl, turned over and sat in the back seat, tightly wrapping his arms around Jier's slender yet powerful waist.

"Sit tight!"

Jier didn't care about it at all. After giving a loud reminder, he suddenly twisted the handlebars and the whole car rushed towards the battlefield like an arrow!

At this moment, whether it was Rita who was wandering outside, or the Snow Lotus team who was defending the defense line, they opened fire at full power in an instant, knocking down all the Honkai beasts that blocked their way forward, and tacitly worked together to clear a relatively safe path for Jier and Lin Wei.

Jier continued to accelerate rapidly on this precious safe road, getting faster and faster.

"Hey, you're speeding!"

Lin Wei reminded loudly in the wind.

"Oh, I'll ask the traffic police to give me a ticket later!"

Jier said without turning his head, his speed continued to increase rapidly.

Soon, the safe passage cleared by her comrades came to an end. With her superb driving skills, Jier shuttled back and forth among the increasing number of Honkai beasts.

"Sit tight!"

Jier reminded loudly, and the car suddenly flew over a broken bridge, drew a graceful arc and landed on the broken bridge on the opposite side, and continued to move freely among the wreckage of vehicles, building debris, and the ubiquitous Honkai beasts.

Damn, he’s so handsome, Lin Wei muttered softly in the back seat.

"Squeak!"

Lin Wei suddenly felt a huge centrifugal force and couldn't help but hold Jier's waist even tighter to avoid being thrown out; he saw a huge knight-level Honkai beast rushing out from an intersection, which Jier narrowly avoided.

However, there was another huge Honkai beast blocking the road ahead.

Jier gritted his teeth, prepared to give it a try, and risked rushing past it.

"Bang! Bang!"

Suddenly, two gunshots were heard from behind. Both the Honkai Beast in front and the knight-level Honkai Beast behind were shocked, and then fell to the ground, losing their breath.

"call……"

Lin Wei blew lightly on the muzzle of the gun, and it was the "Projection of the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire" in the form of a pistol. He thought with some complacency,

“Actually, I’m pretty handsome too~”

"Squeak!"

Another sharp turn.

"..."

Lin Wei quickly put away the God's Key and once again hugged the driver's waist tightly, wailing in his heart.

Help! I don’t remember being carsick?!

But now, why do I feel like vomiting so much?

Chapter 175: Finding a Needle in a Haystack

Lin Wei has been a law-abiding, upright and good citizen and a good young man since he was a child. How could he have ever ridden a motorcycle in such a dangerous way?

All kinds of sharp turns, accelerations, and leaps in the air, occasionally narrowly avoiding the claws of several Honkai beasts; the level of thrill was even more exciting than a year ago when Fu Hua held him in her arms and did extreme parkour in Changkong City.

At least, Lin Wei is 100% confident about Fu Hua!

"Oh!"

Another gunshot rang out, and a flying Honkai beast paused slightly in the air. Taking advantage of this momentary gap, the motorcycle driven by Jier passed under it at high speed like a ghost.

Lin Wei looked over her shoulder and saw clearly in the rearview mirror that the Honkai beast never got up again after it fell to the ground.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Gunshots rang out from time to time.

While Jier was concentrating on driving, Lin Wei would occasionally take the time to deal with the enemies that she found it difficult to avoid in her haste - thanks to Yaezakura's timely reminder, Lin Wei was able to grasp every subtle key detail so accurately.

Gradually, Lin Wei and Jie'er's cooperation became more and more tacit, and Jie'er's driving speed also reached a higher level.

"boom!"

The surging exhaust fumes stirred up countless smoke and dirt, leaving a clear mark in the ruins of the devastated city, and then disappeared without a care in the world, leaving behind only a few corpses of collapsed beasts.

More Honkai beasts fell into confusion after quickly losing their "prey", and then either continued to wander aimlessly; or were attracted by the breath in the distance and instinctively headed further inland until they collided with the Valkyries who were waiting for battle.

But that was the battlefield for Rita and the others; Lin Wei and the others had more important tasks to do.

"Squeak!"

After a burst of lightning-fast speed without paying attention to anyone around, the motorcycle suddenly braked and stopped in front of a dilapidated building.

"arrive……"

Jier said weakly, and then his body went limp and he fell straight to the side.

Lin Wei was shocked when he saw this, and quickly suppressed his stomach which had been churning for a long time. He hurriedly helped Jier up before she fell to the ground, and then raised his hand to take off her helmet so that she could breathe smoothly.

As soon as the helmet was taken off, Jier's short light blue hair was seen to be wet as if it had just been washed, his face was pale, and he was sweating profusely. Even his breathing was a little weak, as if his entire life was burned in the crazy speed just now.

That was her dance in hell, her most bitter and resolute mockery and counterattack against fate and death.

Jier has given it her all. She just wants victory and doesn't care about the cost.

then……

"Hey, wake up!"

Lin Wei desperately pinched her philtrum to help her maintain her already somewhat blurred consciousness;

He even projected the Third God's Key, transforming it into a "pacemaker" and pressing it against Jier's chest, continuously injecting power into her already failing heart, helping it pump blood throughout the body, allowing it to flow normally and nourish her overdrawn body bit by bit.

Why can the Third God's Key be turned into a pacemaker?

Lin Wei said he couldn't understand what Wei Erwei was thinking when she designed this divine key. She always came up with some bizarre and strange tricks...

"Well……"

After Lin Wei's efforts, Jie Er finally woke up. She slowly raised her still weak hands, gently pushed Lin Wei away, pointed at the dilapidated building, and said with some difficulty,

"This is it, Mr. Lin Wei, the place you need..."

"...I know. Stop talking and take a rest."

Lin Wei comforted softly.

This is the most luxurious hotel in Manila and the tallest landmark building - at least it was yesterday.

He did not reveal a truth that would sound cruel at this moment: not only did he know this place, he even lived in this building when he came to Manila last time because of Anna and Yuno.

"..."

Lin Wei raised her head slightly and could vaguely see the broken window of the room she had stayed in. How different things were from the people...

This kind of thing, whether for myself or Jier, is a great irony - I think I have tried my best for a certain purpose, but in the end I find that it is all in vain.

"She's already very fragile, so it's better not to use this kind of thing to hurt her."

Lin Wei shook his head slightly, then grabbed the weapons and equipment fixed to the car body and carried them all on his back. Then, with one hand still supporting Jie'er who still had not recovered her strength, he summoned a small unmanned aerial vehicle out of thin air with the other hand, carrying himself and Jie'er straight up to the roof of the building which was more than 300 meters high.

"...It seems I have done some useless work."

Jier glanced at the aircraft carrying the two of them, then looked at the motorcycle that was abandoned in the distance. He couldn't help but realize that Lin Wei didn't seem to need his help at all, and he couldn't help feeling a little lost.

"How come, Captain Jier?"

Lin Wei gently helped her get off the aircraft and stepped steadily onto the roof of the tall building. He took in the miserable scene of the entire city from a bird's-eye view and said seriously,

"It is because of your persistence that I have a reason to come here. How can it be said that it is useless?"

It's not just because she and her team fought desperately to preserve the last piece of pure land, making the city still worth saving;

For travelers outside of Lin Wei's world, it also represents another layer of meaning that belongs only to travelers:

Even such a character, who had long been relegated to the background in the original "story" and no one even cared about who they were, stood before him so vividly, flesh and blood, full of life, giving everything for their ideals and mission...

This is just one Jier, a Snow Lotus team that was originally lost in the dust, but was seen and remembered by me; but there are more than tens of thousands of Jier and Snow Lotus teams in this world?

Lin Wei couldn't see things that were too far away, nor did he want to worry about them; but at least for now, he couldn't bear to see Jie'er's efforts go to waste, so he was willing to help her a little more.

"Alisa, is it because you saw so many people and things like this that you were willing to fight to the end for the humans of this world?"

Lin Wei looked up at the sky, and suddenly felt closer to her and understood some of her inner thoughts.

Jie'er didn't know what Lin Wei was thinking, she just looked at him puzzledly, wondering why this guy suddenly had a bit of a riddle-like attitude?

Is there anything you can't say directly?

"Okay, hurry up."

Lin Wei put away those thoughts that could not be explained to outsiders in words, waved his hand to put away the aircraft, and then walked straight to the center of the rooftop. He stretched out his hand and lightly tapped, and a steampunk-style signal transmitter rose from the ground.

"..."

Lin Wei was speechless for a while, feeling helpless about Wei Erwei's unique aesthetic style.

Whose antenna base would have several meshing gears rotating continuously?

Does this style fit?
